The Buck Rose Collection
|
|
Using a "survival of the fittest" method for selection, Dr. Buck's research focused on innate hardiness. The resulting roses are also disease and drought resistant, able to survive and thrive no matter what the extremes. Buck particularly sought colors in his roses which would combine easily with other garden flowers. This priority resulted in a myriad of colors that mix beautifully with any landscape--and displays forms which meet any gardener's tastes or landscaper's needs. Whether you prefer clusters of ruffled blooms or long-stemmed hybrid teas, Dr. Buck's rose collection provides options and solutions for landscapes in every climate. AVAILABILITY International rose hybridizers have incorporated Buck's roses into their breeding programs for more than three decades, yet these roses have not been widely available within the United States. Growers and nurseries have made a concerted effort to change this, resulting in the availability of seventy-seven Buck roses in 2008. Snow Roses Desert Blooms: The Buck Collection is a timely guide to these only recently available roses-- Enjoy! *For others' comments on Buck's terrific roses check out ourBuck Rose Links.
